[f-nsp] FWS24 QinQ?

[Alain Hebert]

     Hi,

     Unfortunately yes :(

     BTW it is the same with the newer generation of switches like the 
ICX66xx.  Depending of the # of ports you can have 2 region.

     Sorry to Foundry, but if you wish to have the functionality of 
802.1ad/802.1ah (true Q-in-Q) there is at least 1 vendor with better 
offering at the same price.
